Why Cottage Living is Right for You. When you live alone and don't need a lot of room, considering the potential of cottage living is a good idea. Dwellings of this type will come with all the amenities you would want, but without a lot of upkeep and expense. In addition, the fact that the home is a little smaller and self contained will mean that you spend less time and money in upkeep.

Like other dwellings, cottages come with different floor plans. One that is worth considering is a design featuring what is known as a great room. With this design, the living, dining, and kitchen areas are all part of one larger space. You get to arrange the space any way you like.

When it comes to bedrooms, it is easy to find a cottage design that sports one or two rooms for sleeping. Typically, these are accessed off the main living area, and may have a small bathroom sandwiched in between the two bedrooms. This arrangement allows you to have plenty of privacy even when you have a friend or relative visiting for a few days.

Keep in mind that the square footage in a cottage is more modest than with other types of homes. The space will not feel cramped as long as you purchase furnishings that are to scale. In addition, having less space to clean means that it takes much less time to put everything in order, a benefit you will appreciate when someone calls and lets you know they will be at your door in a matter of minutes.
